A BLOG written by a Glasgow jihadi has been removed after website bosses said it breached rules.

Aqsa Mahmood, 21, left the city in 2014 to join Islamic State (IS).

The former private schoolgirl - dubbed a "jihadi bride", has been blogging IS propaganda online for more than a year.

But it has emerged that Tumblr removed the blog because it flouted the US company's user regulations.

A Tumblr spokesman reportedly said: "We removed this blog due to a violation of Tumblr's policies."

Mahmood used the blog to talk about her life in Syria and once posted a packing checklist for young women planning to join IS in Syria.
